I have read this very interesting book by J.B. West a while ago and just noticed that you can download it to your Kindle for $2.99.  He was the Usher starting with the Roosevelt administration through part of the Nixon administration.  If anyone is interested, it is mostly his relatlionship and experience with the First Ladies.

I sure have learned a lot from his book.  And was very surprised about Jackie Kennedy.  Well, I let you read it for yourself.

 

But he does not trash anybody at all, which is nice.

Re: Upstairs at the Whitehouse

I loved this book. 

If you enjoyed this one you would probably also

enjoy Backstairs At The Whitehouse.

It was written before this one. I believe a 

movie was made from it.
